Attractions/Tours/Arts and Crafts

The Center, opened in 1995, provides for the first time, an opportunity for the Tribe to tell its own history from the perspective of the San Carlos Apache people. It is 30 minutes from Globe and two hours from Phoenix or Tucson.

The Window on Apache Culture Exhibit tells the history of this proud nation. In the exhibit, visitors will learn about the spiritual beginnings of the people of the Mountain Spirit Dancers and of the beautiful Changing Woman Ceremony known today as the Sunrise Ceremony. They will learn of the cultural legacy left by the people who lived in the land for thousands of years and of the great period of time when the Apache people moved like the wind across vast areas of the southwestern United States and northern Mexico. They will also learn about the forced confinement on the reservation, reservation life as it is today, and about the visions the Tribe has for the future.

Educational program and demonstrations are available for school and other groups. Please call the Center’s Manager for additional information and fees.

Visit the Center’s Gift Shop and purchase authentic San Carlos Apache arts and crafts at affordable prices.
